The place is just as pictured. The only thing that didn’t match was there was no washer/dryer. Susan was wonderful though. We’d been on the road for 3 weeks and she let us use her w/d. She’d been trying (unsuccessfully so far) to get VRBO to remove the w/d from the listing. The toilet paper was super thin, however. Otherwise the place was great. The Internet worked well. The shower was good. It was a walk to most of Brunswick. The bed was comfortable.. And the host (Susan) was so nice.

Lovely studio near Bowdoin College

The cottage is absolutely lovely. My teen son and I stayed while visiting Bowdoin. It’s on a quiet street that is a quick walk to campus. The decor was beautiful while also being relaxed. It also was very clean and I appreciated that the sheets and towels were scent-free.Though the cottage is directly behind the host’s home, it felt completely private. As for the host, Susan could not have been more helpful and welcoming. Communication was outstanding from my first inquiry before booking to when we left Brunswick. Highly recommend. I hope to return!

Perfect getaway for 2

My spouse and I recently spent our Thanksgiving holidays in this little gem in the heart of downtown Brunswick. We were immediately made to feel welcome by Susan, and the houses felt like home to us. Thoughtful amenities were everywhere. There was a great reading selection - art, music,literature, vintage children's books. Best of all for me was the baby grand Steinway tucked away and ready to play. So cozy and warm. We will be returning for sure. Carol & Peter

Wonderful everything!

Even before we arrived, Susan made us feel welcome. She made checking in very low pressure and simple...we just walked in. At first glance, the cottage seemed quaint and peaceful. Inside, every item is attentively appointed and very tidy. Cleanliness is very important to us and the cottage was absolutely impeccable. We would definitely stay again if we are in the area and I highly recommend it as a comfortable, clean, peaceful, and beautiful rental property.

We really enjoyed our stay in this comfortable cottage that is on a quiet street yet close to everything in Brunswick. The space is well equipped with everything you need to cook and rest comfortably. It fit our family of three very well. Susan, the host, was so accommodating and helpful. We appreciate her so much! We hope we can return soon.
